Is there a substitute that could used or at least tested to see if it produces meaningful results?

There are then suitable auxiliary sets available for these. You should check out Hill, J. G.; Peterson, K. A. Journal of Chemical Theory And Computation 2012, 8, 518–526. If you want to use all-electron sets, it gets a lot more ambiguous at this time and I’m not sure there are great choices available. best regards, -Kirk > On Jul 14, 2017, at 12:43 AM, Maria Dimitrova maria.dimitrova[]helsinki.fi wrote: > > > Sent to CCL by: "Maria Dimitrova" [maria.dimitrova++helsinki.fi] > Hello, > > I would like to do an F12-MP2 calculation on a molecule with copper atoms in Turbomole, however as far as I see there is no suitable F12 basis set for copper yet.
